After the 2019 election votes were tallied, the outcome for 22 parties was only four-digit figures, with 13 of these parties receiving less than 5,000 votes. Do these smaller parties still have a future?

The ANC won 57.51% of the vote, which was more than double their nearest rivals, the Democratic Alliance (DA) who garnered 20.76% of the vote, while the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) were in third place with 10.79%.
